TGI FridaysSM Overview

As the original casual dining bar and grill, TGI FridaysSM offers authentic American food and legendary drinks, served with genuine personal service. Bringing people together to socialize and celebrate the freeing and liberating spirit of "Friday" was the concept's founding premise, from which the brand promise "In Here, It's Always Friday" was born.

To share that social Fridays experience all over the world, TGI FridaysSM proudly serves guests with over 900 restaurants in more than 60 countries. Making every day feel like a Friday wouldn't be possible without creating a place where friends feel free to get together. That's why TGI FridaysSM takes pride in its nearly 74,000 skilled and knowledgeable Team Members who help serve our guests each and every day.

Our company believes in operating responsibly in all aspects of our business, and ensuring a responsible supply chain is one way we can demonstrate that."
